  • Patent number: 11414455
    Abstract: Disclosed are monoacylated Toll-like receptor 2 ligands which can be used in both the development of targeted agents for the imaging and treatment of pancreatic cancer as well as other cancers, and as an adjuvant for cancer immunotherapy. The monoacylated compounds disclosed herein have a higher binding affinity for TLR2 relative to a known potent diacylated agonists, but only ?½ the bioactivity. Competition of the monoacylated compound with the diacylated compound for binding TLR2 was confirmed. Hence, the reported monoacylated compounds are inhibitors/antagonists of TLR2 activation.

  • Patent number: 11418030
    Abstract: Fast simultaneous feasibility testing (SFT) for management of an electrical power grid is achieved through various innovations. The computation problem relates to evaluation of candidate solutions for external power flows into a power grid, with respect to predetermined constraints and contingencies. Storage and computations are reduced by formulating the problem in terms of transactional nodes (e.g. third party connections for generators and loads) instead of the larger number of bus nodes. Further advantages are achieved by precomputing matrices that can be reused across multiple SFT invocations, organizing matrices and operations to reduce storage and computation, and eliminating branches that have no contingency violations.

  • Patent number: 11418548
    Abstract: Provided is a method of transmitting security information of a single-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) wiretap channel. In the method of transmitting the security information of the single-bit ADC channel, a transmitting terminal adds additive noise to a transmission signal and transmits the transmission signal, and a receiving terminal and a wiretap terminal which each include a single-bit ADC receive the transmission signal, wherein received information is processed so as not to be determined by the wiretap terminal. When intensity of additive noise of the receiving terminal is less than that of additive noise of the wiretap terminal, a binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) distribution is used, and when the intensity of the additive noise of the receiving terminal is greater than that of the additive noise of the wiretap terminal, a codebook is designed using an asymmetric BPSK distribution in which both of two message points have a positive value.
